What an amazing experience. Thank you Stowell Learning Center!

When parenting is filled with meltdowns, therapy appointments, and emotional landmines, joy can quietly disappear from the day-to-day. In this powerful conversation, Jill Stowell and occupational therapist Cherie Francis-Boegeman explore what’s really going on underneath difficult behaviors—and how families can begin to reconnect, regulate, and rediscover joy.

Together, they unpack how sensory needs, emotional safety, and lagging developmental skills impact behavior—and what to do when nothing seems to be working.

Whether your child has ADHD, learning challenges, or sensory processing differences, this episode will give you clarity, compassion, and a better path forward.

What is Occupational Therapy? “Occupational Therapy is a health, wellness, and rehabilitation profession which supports individuals with varying degrees of physical, socio-emotional, or cognitive impairments. Occupational Therapy helps clients regain, develop, and build skills that are essential for independent functioning, health, and well-being. Occupational Therapists and Occupational Therapy Assistants focus on helping children thrive in the “occupation” of childhood-learning, playing, and growing. Occupational Therapists help students develop the skills and confidence needed to succeed and be independent despite learning or developmental disabilities, or behavioral problems.”

What is Ayres Sensory Integration? As defined by Dr. Jean Ayres in her book, Sensory Integration and the Child: “Sensory integration is the organization of sensory input for use. The “use” may be a perception of the body or of the world, an adaptive response, a learning process, or the development of some neural function. Through sensory integration, the many parts of the nervous system work together so that a person can interact with the environment effectively and experience appropriate satisfaction. (Sensory Integration and the Child, page 5). Sensory Integration is an unconscious process of the brain that gives us meaning to what is experienced. It allows us to act or respond to a situation we experience in a purposeful manner. It forms an underlying foundation for academic learning and social behavior (Sensory Integration and the Child, pg. 5)
